I suspect that he's counting on the diversification to cover for a lack of active management. He could use a policy of only looking at a stock if it actually cut its dividend and the portfolio would probably work fine, as long as he chose decently initially.
Really, at 70 names, you could think of it as its own high-yield index. He would typically have to make a few adjustments a year. A dividend cut, or an aquisition could be the only criteria he'd need to use.
I'm FIREd and don't [-]want to piss away my time[/-] have the time to do this. I woulda stayed w*rking (NAH, now I'm lying to you) if I wanted to w*rk this hard. I gave up a cushy 6 figure job to do this FIRE stuff (and btw still wouldn't trade it for anything)
